Welcome To Chiberia – Chicago Goes From Deep-Dish to Deep Freeze

Chicago was hit hard with the polar vortex that froze the northeast for the new year. Frozen water, people and cars are the norm, in the city that used to the cold, but not this cold.

Frozen Wasteland

Chicago is a frozen wasteland, with people choosing to stay home than to attempt to go out in the cold. Fearing frostbitten faces, toes and hands, the city is barren. Locals are calling it ‘Chiberia’ , a portmanteau of Chicago and Siberia.
